Batum Playing in NBA Africa Game (LIVE NOW)

[Proudiddy]

Just a heads up.  Going into the 2nd qtr now.

Been pretty underwhelming so far...  Looks like an all-star game without the all-stars being played at a pedestrian tempo.  These guys are completely walking/jogging up and down the floor, no defense, etc.  It's understandable though...  It's an exhibition.  But it feels like it was cobbled together...  Team Africa doesn't even have a true point.  Batum was actually just running point.  Additionally, they couldn't find enough guys that fit the criteria to be on team Africa, so they have guys like Mbah A Moute and Nazr Mohammed (who are currently FAs without a team) wearing their former team's Jersey. 

 

All that being said...   A very cool moment here in the second quarter - completely previously unannounced, Dikembe and Hakeem checked in and The Dream even scored on Vucevic.
